PS: OL 2000 Calendar and Contacts folders were in the smaller
Personal Folder along with what I have been calling the 'working
folders' - Inbox, Drafts, etc. Everything else came along but those
peskey Contacts and Calendar files.

You do NOT want to set your delivery location to be the OL 2000 PST (what
you're calling the "working folders"). That PST has a 2GB size limit that
the native OL 2007 PST doesn't have.

A pst file can be located allmost anywhere on the HD.
Search to include hidden for *.pst

And where might this second .pst file be found. It is not in the
Outlook folder that contains the .pst file I did migrate.

Outlook 2000 never used a PAB file. It only retained backwards
compatibility with them. The hint here is that the OP was using 2 PST
files and appears only to have migrated one of them.

In short I copied the OL 2000.pst file to a CD using my 'old' comuter.
I then opened the copied file on OL 2000 to verify it was a good copy.

Were you using a PAB (Personal Address Book) in outlook 2000? If so, and
I think that O2000 used a PAB by default in one of its modes. then that
is NOT contained in the pst file. It's a separate file AFAIK.
